โ€œโ€For Israel was not created in order to disappearโ€”Israel will endure and flourish. It is the child of hope and the home of the brave.
โ€” ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ John F. Kennedy

Israel, officially the State of Israel, is a โœก๏ธ Jewish ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ pro-West ๐Ÿ—ณ๏ธ democratic cuboid country located in the ๐Ÿ˜‡ Levant, 4๏ธโƒฃ Middle East, founded on the principle of ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Zionism, a longing for a Jewish homeland once again. Israel is surrounded by enemies that seeks his destruction, like ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Palestine ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ, ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanon ๐Ÿ”ฐ, and ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Iran. Israel is the only country that has a Jewish majority population, many Jews moved to Israel from around the ๐ŸŒ world after his establishment in 1948.

The reason why Israel and all other Jews are cubes is because of a ๐Ÿคก joke called "JEWISH PHYSICS". It referred to the time when ๅ Nazis rejected discoveries made by Jewish ๐Ÿงช scientists, marking them as "Jewish Physics". In a very old comic (possibly the first comic where Israel made an appearance), Israel said that he discovered that countries are not balls, but rather a 4D shape known as the Tesseract. This was later commonly simplified to just a cube later.

There are some countries, mostly โ˜ช๏ธ Muslim or โ˜ญ communist, that do not recognize the cube, such as not accepting his passports, and some that used to hold diplomatic relations with the cube in the past but later withdrew. There are also countryballs that want him gone for what they officially describe as "๏ทฝ resistance". Sill, many ๐ŸŒ™ Arabs live in Israel and have Israeli citizenship, and most of them do not want to move to neighboring ๐ŸŒ™ Arab countries due to Israel having more freedoms of education, ๐Ÿ’Š medicine and stuff. Israel is the only free and democratic country in the Middle East.

Israel is considered the most reliable ally of the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ United States, since he actually pulls his own weight and fight enemies for America. The US actually benefits from this allyship, unlike ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ Europe and ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Canada who instead of solely rely on US support and run crying to ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ China when the US asks for anything in return.

Many people have accused Israel of โ˜  genocide against ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Gaza. However, the combatant-civilian death ratio of the Gaza war has been one of the most positive and Gazan population has grown during the years of supposed "genocide".

ื”ึดื™ืกื˜ื•ึนืจึดื™ึธื” (History)

ืขืฆืžืื•ืช ื•ืฉื ื™ื ืžื•ืงื“ืžื•ืช (Independence & Early Years)

The modern State of Israel was established after lots of ๐Ÿ˜ก ethnical clashes which made it clear that โœก๏ธ Jews and ๐ŸŒ™ Arabs (๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Palestinians) could not co-exist โ˜ฎ๏ธ peacefully. So, the ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง United Kingdom left ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง Mandatory Palestine to the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ United Nations to deal with.

In 1948, the UN proposed a partition plan where they would split Mandatory Palestine 50/50. The Jews agreed and Israel was born, finally becoming an independent nation and having a country again after centuries of exile. But the Arabs (Palestinians) refused the plan, and a day later and Israel was attacked by ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ถ Iraq, ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Syria, ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanon, ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Egypt and ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ด Transjordan, along with the support of the ๐ŸŒ™ Arab League, kicking off the First Arab-Israeli War. Even though outnumbered, Israel was able to win for a variety of reasons. The Arabs were divided and poorly coordinated while the Jews had better organization, strategy, timing, and motivation. For Israel, it was an existential war, if he loses it means he would die. Many soldiers were ๅ Holocaust survivors or refugees, there was high willingness to mobilize civilians, and rapid conscription including reserves. For the Arabs, there was unified command. They had different goals: Jordan wanted the ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ West Bank, Egypt wanted influence in ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Gaza, others wanted prestige or containment, some Arab leaders did not want a Palestinian state at all. Arab soldiers were often unclear why they were even fighting, their governments feared coups more than defeat.

Israel also had a network responsible for ๐Ÿช– arms shipments from ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ Eastern Europe, mostly โ˜ญ Yugoslavia and โ˜ญ Czechoslovakia. This network would later be purged by the โ˜ญ Soviet Union, who grew increasingly ๐Ÿšซ anti-Zionist. With his victory, Israel annexed most clay in Palestine except for the Gaza Strip that was under the control of Egypt and the West Bank that was under the control of Jordan. A mass exodus of Palestinians occurred, with many fleeing to neighbouring Arab nations.

By ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ United Nations General Assembly Resolution 273, Israel was admitted as a member on 11 May 1949. In the early years of the state, the ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Labour Zionist movement led by the first Prime Minister ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Ben-Gurion dominated Israeli ๐Ÿ›๏ธ politics.

In the following years, Israel began to develop a close relationship with ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ USA and aligned himself with the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ capitalist bloc, particularly as Cold War tensions intensified. This alignment was not immediate, but by the early 1950s Israel was increasingly viewed as part of the Western sphere of influence. Meanwhile, many of his neighbouring Arabs aligned with โ˜ญ Soviet Union and the โ˜ญ communist bloc.

ื”ืกื›ืกื•ืš ื”ืขืจื‘ื™-ื™ืฉืจืืœื™ (Arab-Israeli Conflict)

In 1956, following ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Egypt's nationalization of the ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Suez Canal, Israel joined ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง United Kingdom and ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท France in a coordinated military operation against him, known as the Suez Crisis. Israeli forces rapidly invaded and occupied the ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Sinai Peninsula, achieving significant military success and neutralizing Egyptian positions threatening southern Israel. However, intense diplomatic pressure from both the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ USA and the โ˜ญ USSR forced the attackers to withdraw. While the UK and France suffered major ๐ŸŒ international humiliation and a severe loss of ๐ŸŒ global influence, Israel withdrew from Sinai in March 1957 under different circumstances. In return, Israel received indirect security benefits, including the deployment of ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ United Nations Emergency Force peacekeepers in Sinai and guarantees of free navigation through the ๐ŸŒŠ Straits of Tiran. Although Israel did not achieve formal treaties or lasting territorial gains, the conflict significantly strengthened his military reputation.

In the early 1960s, Israel captured ๅ Nazi war criminal ๅ Adolf Eichmann in ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ท Argentina and brought him to Israel for trial. Eichmann remains the only person ๐Ÿ˜ต executed in Israel by conviction in an Israeli civilian court. In 1963, Israel was engaged in a diplomatic standoff with the United States in relation to the Israeli nuclear programme.

Since 1964, the ๐ŸŒ™ Arab nations, concerned over Israeli plans to divert waters of the ๐ŸŒŠ Jordan River into the Israeli coastal plain, had been trying to divert the headwaters to deprive Israel of water resources, provoking tensions between Israel on the one hand, and ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Syria and ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanon on the other.

The ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ PLO (Palestine Liberation Organization) was founded in 1964 following an earlier decision of the Arab League, with the goal being the "liberation" of ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Palestine (getting rid of Israel) through armed struggle. Arab โ›ณ nationalists led by ๐Ÿ‡พ๐Ÿ‡ช Egyptian President ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Gamal Abdel Nasser refused to recognize Israel and called for the state's destruction. By 1966, Israeli-Arab relations had deteriorated to the point of battles taking place between the two forces. That year, the Israeli cube attacked ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ West Bank under ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ด Jordan, saying that Palestinian guerrillas had crossed his border, also accusing Syria of financing and arming the Palestineballs, starting then hostilities with him.

In May 1967, Egypt massed his army near the border with Israel, expelled ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ UN peacekeepers, and blocked Israel's access to the ๐ŸŒŠ Red Sea. Other Arab states mobilized their forces as well. Israel reiterated that these actions were a casus belli and launched a pre-emptive strike (Operation Focus) against Egypt in June. Things boiled over and ๐Ÿ‡พ๐Ÿ‡ช Egypt, ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ด Jordan, ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Syria, ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanon and ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ถ Iraq attacked Israel. In the ensuing Six-Day War, Israel captured and occupied the West Bank from Jordan, the Gaza Strip and Sinai Peninsula from Egypt, and the ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Golan Heights from Syria. It was a victory so great, Israel defeating so many nations in just a mere six days, even ๐ŸŽธ Sabaton made a song about it. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Jerusalem's boundaries were enlarged, incorporating East Jerusalem. The 1949 Green Line became the administrative boundary between Israel and the occupied territories.

Following the 1967 war and the "Three Nos" resolution of the Arab League, Israel faced attacks from the Egyptians in the Sinai Peninsula during the 1967-1970 War of Attrition, and from Palestinian groups targeting Israelis in the occupied territories, ๐ŸŒ globally, and in Israel.

In 1970, the PLO attacked Jordan (Black September) and Israel (through Palestinian insurgencies in Lebanon). In 1972, a group of Palestinians known as the ๏ทฝ Black September Organization held the Israeli ๐Ÿ† Olympic team hostage in ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช Munich and โ˜  massacred all of them. In response to this, ๐Ÿณ๏ธ Mossad started Operation Wrath of โœก๏ธ God to kill all of those involved.

On 6 October 1973, Egyptian and Syrian forces launched a surprise attack against Israel in the Sinai Peninsula and Golan Heights, opening the Yom Kippur War, attempting to retake the clay lost to them during the humiliating Six-Day War. Even though the cube repelled the attacks, he went through some difficulties, needing resupply help from ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ USA, and even considered the use of nuclear weapons, what he calls the "Samson Option". But in the end, even with great losses, Israel occupied more Syrian land than before. Under pressure ๐ŸŒ internationally, a ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ UN buffer zone was created in Israel's newly gained land. An internal inquiry exonerated the government of responsibility for failures before and during the war, but public anger forced Prime Minister ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Golda Meir to resign. The same year, Israel launched several attacks against the PLO in Southern Lebanon.

In 1976, ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฌ Uganda helped โ˜ญ PFLP hold a plane full of Israelis hostage, resulting in an Israeli attack, during which the ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Israeli military deployed several planes carrying armoured personnel carriers and soldiers, which killed the hijackers, Ugandan soldiers, and destroyed several Ugandan fighter jets.

ืชื”ืœื™ืš ื”ืฉืœื•ื (Peace Process)

A major ๐Ÿ›๏ธ political shift occurred in 1977 when the ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Likud party led by ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Menachem Begin won the elections, ending decades of ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Labour dominance, also marking a long-term realignment of Israeli politics. Later that year, ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Egyptian President ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Anwar El Sadat made a trip to Israel and spoke before the ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Knesset in what was the first recognition of Israel by an ๐ŸŒ™ Arab head of state. Sadat and Begin signed the Camp David Accords in 1978 and the Egyptโ€“Israel โ˜ฎ๏ธ peace treaty in 1979. In return, Israel withdrew from the ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Sinai Peninsula and agreed to enter negotiations over autonomy for ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Palestinians in the ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ West Bank and the ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Gaza Strip.

Israel attacked Southern ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanon in 1978, resulting in a ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ PLO retreat. The future of the ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Golan Heights is still being debated in Israel. Some think that the region should be traded for peace, others think Golan was too strategic to give up. But still, the government introduced a new law in 1981 that treated the Golan Heights as any other part of Israel in practice. This move was condemned by the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ United Nations.

In 1982, Israel launched a full attack on Lebanon, resulting in the complete expulsion of the PLO. This invasion ended in 1985 but marked the beginning of the South Lebanon conflict, facing attacks from โ˜ช๏ธ Shia militias, most notably ๐Ÿ”ฐ Hezbollah, which emerged with backing from ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Iran. In 1985, in response to the murder of 3 Israelis on their yacht in ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡พ Cyprus, Israel destroyed the PLO headquarters in ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ณ Tunisia with fighter jets.

While all of this was happening, large numbers of Israelis started settling in the West Bank, forcing Palestinians off the land and generally making it harder for Israelcube and Palestine to agree to peace. Anger over all of this erupted into the First Intifada in 1987, which began as a series of protests and boycotts but soon turned ๐Ÿ’ข bloody in the form of riots and violent attacks.

In the 1990s, ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Syria and Israel tried to talk out the fate of the Golan Heights. In Israel, some think that the Golan Heights should be returned in exchange for peace, while others think that it should be kept. Israel was initially open to this idea, but the two couldn't agree on the borders and the public opinion in both countries spoke out against it. So, the status quo remained until 2011 when the Syrian Civil War happened, leaving no hope for a peaceful returnage.

In 1993, the ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ด Oslo Accords were negotiated, resulting in mutual recognition and the creation of the ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Palestine's official government. Limited Palestinian self-rule was established in parts of the West Bank and Gaza. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Yitzhak Rabin and ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Yasser Arafat shared the ๐Ÿ… Nobel Peace Prize for the agreement, and Israelcube made also peace with ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ด Jordan in 1994. However, both Israeli and Palestinian extremists used violence in an attempt to derail these agreements. The ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Terrorist organization ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Al-Qassam Brigades (military of ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Hamas) organized bombings and the Israeli prime minister ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated by a far-right Israeli in 1995.

In the context of South Lebanon conflict, Israelcube launched Operation Grapes of Wrath in 1996 to stop rocket attacks by Hezbollah through extensive air raids and shelling. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Ehud Barak, elected prime minister in 1999, withdrew forces from southern Lebanon and conducted negotiations with ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ PNA Chairman ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Yasser Arafat and U.S. President ๐ŸŽท Bill Clinton at the 2000 Camp David Summit. Barak offered a plan for the establishment of a Palestinian state, including the entirety of the Gaza Strip and over 90% of the West Bank with ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Jerusalem as a shared capital. Each side blamed the other for the failure of the talks. The war in Lebanon had become costly, unpopular, and strategically unproductive, so Israel withdrew.

ื”ืื™ื ืชื™ืคืื“ื” ื”ืฉื ื™ื™ื” ื•ืžืœื—ืžืช ืขื–ื” (Second Intifada & Gaza War)

In late 2000, after a controversial visit by ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Ariel Sharon to the Temple Mount, the Second Intifada began. ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Palestinians, believing that โ˜ฎ๏ธ peace could not be achieved, became way more ๐Ÿ˜ฑ violent and bloody than the First Intifada. Israelcube attempted to suppress these uprisings, but the violence was too widespread to simply suppress with force. Palestinian suicide bombings eventually developed into a recurrent feature of the intifada, usually targeting Israeli civilians. Some commentators contend that the intifada was pre-planned by ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Arafat after the collapse of peace talks.

The violence of the Intifada mostly ended after the Israel, Palestine, ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Egypt, and ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ด Jordan held the ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Sharm El Sheikh summit in 2005, where both sides agreed to stop attacking each other. As part of the agreement, Israel disengaged from ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Gaza Strip the same year, both ๐Ÿช– militarily and civilly. Israel ordered all โœก๏ธ Jews to leave Gaza, and those who opposed were removed by force. It was a very dramatic time for the Israelis. But what was left there was a ton of infrastructures built by the Israeli peoples, like factories, farms, greenhouses, and basically everything. But instead of using these resources and wealth, the Palestinians burned everything down and even killed the ๐Ÿพ animals in farms.

In July 2006, a ๐Ÿ”ฐ Hezbollah did artillery assault on Israel's northern border communities and an ambushed 2 Israeli humvees with anti-tank guns, killing 3 ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ soldiers, before taking 2 hostages that ended up dying later of wounds. Israel responded with airstrikes and shellings, both on military assets and civilian infrastructure in ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanon. This precipitated the month-long Second Lebanon War, including an Israeli invasion of Lebanon. The war wound down in August 2006 after the passage of ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701; Israeli forces mostly withdrew from Lebanon by October 2006 but continued to occupy the Lebanese portion of ๐Ÿคบ Ghajar village.

After ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Hamas won elections in Gaza in 2006, he used his new control over the strip to attack the cube in 2007. In response to this, Israel put Gaza Strip under a strict blockade with help from Egypt, depriving the civilian population of goods and infrastructure. Many tunnel networks exist in attempts to supply civilian goods and animals, but some also exist to provide shelter/resources for ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Al-Qassam Brigades (Hamas' fighting group) military campaigns. Also in 2007, Israel destroyed a nuclear reactor in ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Syria.

In 2008, Israel offered Palestine to be a state, but he rejected the offer because he did not get all the clay in the ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ West Bank. The same year, a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel collapsed, resulting in the three-week Gaza War. In time, Israel and Palestine got tired of looking for any solution for โ˜ฎ๏ธ peace. Various other โš”๏ธ wars, skirmishes, and operations happened in the following years.

By the 2010s, increasing regional cooperation between Israel and ๐ŸŒ™ Arab League countries have been established. The Israeli security situation shifted from the traditional Arabโ€“Israeli conflict towards the Iranโ€“Israel proxy conflict. In 2011, the Syrian Civil War broke out, which largely worked in Israel's favor. Still, Israel regularly targeted the ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Iranian and ๐Ÿ”ฐ Hezbollahian positions in ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Syria, as both were called by ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Assad to help. Israel even gave some funding to some ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ rebel factions. During this time, Israel completely abandoned the idea of returning the Golan Heights, instead focusing on securing official ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US recognition of this land claim, which Israel got in 2019 under the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Trump administration. Though, no other nation recognized this.

In a response to over a hundred Palestinian rocket attacks on southern Israeli cities, Israel began Operation Pillar of Defense in the Gaza Strip in 2012, lasting eight days. Israel started another operation, Operation Protective Edge, in Gaza following an escalation of rocket attacks by Hamas in July 2014. In May 2021, another round of fighting (Operation Guardian of The Walls) took place in Gaza and Israel, lasting eleven days.

On 7 October 2023, Palestinian militant groups from ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Gaza led by ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Hamas, launched a series of coordinated attacks and โ˜  massacres against Israel, resulting in many Israeli civilians being killed by Hamas. In response, after Israel cleared the militants from his clay, he invaded Gaza. Since then, over 27,000 ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Palestinians have been killed, two-thirds of whom were โ™€๏ธ women and children. This is because the coward Hamas hides themselves and their weapons inside civilian settlements and hospitals, to increase Palestinian civilian deaths and gain global sympathy. It worked pretty well, and ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ South Africa filed a โ˜  genocide case against Israel to the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ United Nations on 29 December.

In February 2024, Israelcube announced plans to invade ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Rafah, where millions of refugees already live. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Benjamin Netanyahu asked the cityball to evacuate the citizens, finally causing the Westโ€”including ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ USAโ€”to condemn Israel.

In September 2024, a large number of Israeli protesters took to the streets because 6 dead hostages has been found by soldiers in ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Hamas tunnels. They want ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Bibi to end the war. But if he does this, it will anger the far-right people in the cabinet, who can easily topple the government. Around that time, Israel also assassinated almost every ๐Ÿ”ฐ Hezbollah leader and started a ground invasion of southern ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanon. Hezbollah's sponsor, ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Iran, responded by sending 200 ballistic missiles into Israel.

In December 2024, Israel invades ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Syria (who didn't even have a government yet) to secure strategic locations and destroy high-tech weapons. Israel also invades ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ UN buffer zone, justifying this with two reasons: first by saying that he is supporting a ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ณ UN outpost nearby should it come โš”๏ธ under fire, second by saying that since the โ˜ฎ๏ธ ceasefire agreement made in that region was with the former ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Ba'athist government, and since the Ba'athist regime became null, so did the agreement.

In January 2025, Israel and Hamas agreed on the first phase of a ceasefire plan and exchanged hostages with each other. However, further talks never really happened, and in March 2025 Israel attacked on the ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Gaza Strip again, ending the ceasefire. This attack was the deadliest yet. Throughout March and April, Israel continues to bomb targets in ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Syria, claiming them to be ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Assadist loyalist points endangering Israeli interests and lives.

On 25 April 2025, police recover remains of man killed in first fatal shark attack in history of the State of Israel.

In June 2025, Israel launched dozens of strikes and killed many ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Iranian top ๐Ÿช– military commanders and ๐Ÿงช scientists as part of Operation Rising Lion. Many nuclear facilities were also targeted and destroyed, preventing Iran from becoming a nuclear power. Iran retaliated by spam-striking Israel with more than 100 of rockets. The Iron Dome and neighboring ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ด Jordan was able to stop most strikes, but some made it through and hit civilian buildings.

On 10 October 2025, a first-phase ceasefire agreement was made between Israel and Hamas mediated by ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Trump, effectively ending the Gaza war. Of course, small skirmishes still occurred.

ื’ึตืื•ึนื’ืจึทืคื™ึธื” (Geography)

Israel is located in the ๐Ÿ˜‡ Levant area of the 4๏ธโƒฃ Fertile Crescent. At the eastern end of the ๐ŸŒŠ Mediterranean Sea, Israel is bounded by ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanon to the north, ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Syria to the north-east, ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ด Jordan and the ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ West Bank to the east, and ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ Egypt and the ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Gaza Strip to the south-west. Israel lies between latitudes 29ยฐ and 34ยฐ N, and longitudes 34ยฐ and 36ยฐ E. Despite his small size, Israel's clay is home to a variety of geographic features, including mountain ranges, deserts, fertile land and coasts.

The sovereign territory of Israel (according to the demarcation lines of the 1949 Armistice Agreements and excluding all territories captured by Israel during the 1967 Six-Day War) is approximately 20,770 square kilometers (8,019 sq mi), of which two percent is water. However Israel's clay is so narrow (100 km at its widest, compared to 400 km from north to south) that the exclusive economic zone in the Mediterranean is double the land area of the country. The total area under Israeli law, including ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ East Jerusalem and the ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Golan Heights, is 22,072 square kilometers (8,522 sq mi), and the total area under Israeli control, including the military-controlled and partially ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Palestinian-governed territory of the West Bank, is 27,799 square kilometers (10,733 sq mi).

ืึทืงืœึดื™ื (Climate)

Temperatures vary widely, especially during the winter. Israel does not receive many rainfalls, so it is usually pretty warm there. This is why water is like gold in Israel, his source of water comes from rivers that are located within enemy territory.

ื›ื™ืคืช ื‘ืจื–ืœ (Iron Dome)

The Iron Dome is a super advanced defense mechanism of Israel. Radars scan for missiles, and when they detect one ore more, they calculate if it's going towards an empty field or population center. If it's going to empty field, they leave it alone, but if it's heading towards population center, smaller missiles will be shot at the attacking missile, exploding near it. The scraps of the exploding Israeli missile makes the attacking missile fall to the ground before it hits the population center.

ื“ึฐื‘ึธืจึดื™ื ื‘ึฐึผื˜ึตืœึดื™ื (Trivia)

  • Many ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ pro-Palestinians have accused Israel of violating ๐ŸŒ international law by not letting humanitarian aid into ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Gaza Strip, however they're ignoring the fact that in Article 23 of the Geneva Convention stats that aid can be stopped if armed groups are using them for their advantage. And we have seen many videos of ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Hamas and other militant clans raiding supply trucks, and Palestinian civilians have also accused Hamas of hoarding food and ๐Ÿ’Š medical aid.
  • Israel's strikes are very coordinated and effective. They target specific points such as enemy generals and weapon-creating bases, unlike ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Iran who uses their strikes to blanket the enemy population.
  • Israel doesn't stamp the passports of non-Israeli citizens because many other countries have a policy of denying entry to anyone with the Israeli stamp even if they're not a โœก๏ธ Jew.
  • Israel sacrifices a lot for Israeli hostages, he is willing to trade convicted murderers for hostages on demand of ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ Hamas.

Hatikvah (The Hope) is the โ›ณ national anthem of the State of Israel. Part of 19th-century โœก๏ธ Jewish poetry, the theme of the โœจ Romantic composition reflects the 2,000-year-old desire of the Jewish people to return to the ๐Ÿ˜‡ Land of Israel in order to ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ reclaim a free and sovereign nation-state.

As long as in the heart, within,
The soul of a โœก๏ธ Jew still yearns,
And onwards, towards the ends of the 4๏ธโƒฃ east,
An eye still gazes toward ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Zion,

Our hope is not yet lost,
The hope of two thousand years,
To be a free nation in our own land,
The land of Zion and ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Jerusalem.

To be a free nation in our own land,
The land of Zion and Jerusalem!
